  2. Message tab setting on New Mail need improving

    On Old Mail, I had message tabs that would go away after replying to or forwarding that particular message. I liked that setting, but now the message tabs just hang around no matter what until I go through and close them manually, which isn't nearly as useful as the old setting.

  3. Stop forcing me to use mobile site on iPad, or let me access all settings via mobile

    Using chrome on iPad makes yahoo force the mobile site even when the desktop site is requested. I can’t access all the settings on the mobile site, for example I simply have no way of making a disposable email address. Can’t do this on the app either.

    I can make entire new email accounts but this requires my phone number for text verification for no reason.

  4. If my Phoneis switched off, I cannot access my own mail...Very unconvenient

    Many times, my phone is switched off or low battery or if I am not carrying it. It becomes very Inconvenient to use it any where even in a internet cafe.

  5. Ability to apply new filter to existing email in inbox... like Gmail does.

    Universal rule: if you wish to beat the competition, you must at least provide what they do (or make the feature obsolete). Otherwise you are by definition lacking and inferior in the way of lacking.

    In this example: The ability to apply new filters to existing emails in inbox.

    Having to manually filter the email in my inbox because the new filter only applies to NEW emails ENTERING the inbox is a waste of my time, one which I'm not burdened with on Gmail.

  8. allow pictures in business email profile

    Please allow Yahoo business email users to add a profile picture.
    This is should be a basic feature of every email. When people receive an email from our company, it should not have a random avatar. FYI - We pay for the Web Hosting Premier Annual Plan; and it should be available for everyone.

  10. put billing attached to SETTINGS in side the mail application.

    it is BAD idea to follow a link in an email or call a number sent to you in an email. . .FISHING. if no billing/payment tied to settings WITHIN yahoo mail I guess the paid portion is going to run out.

  11. How can I log into my desktop email without having to verify through my phone every time?

    Can you go back to the password method instead of having me go get my phone to verify through the yahoo app that I'm who I am when trying to access email from my desktop computer? It's a real pain in the butt!

  13. don't induce login problems and don't charge to help people through yahoo induced problems

    I just had a helluva time logging in. Yahoo claimed something was suspicious with the login so it wanted to send an email to Hotmail to verify. Okay except hotmail decided to do the same so I had no computer access to either account. I have a mobile device connected to the yahoo email but no way to verify identity or change any settings through it. Fortunately I was able to logon to yahoo.com through the mobile device and make the changes needed to allow my computer access. I do not…

    You can forward emails in the new version as well, please go to Settings-More Settings-Mailboxes, click your account then scroll down on the menu that opens on the right side.

  16. Cannot add new disposable address

    Cannot add new disposable address

    THe button for adding a new email address is greyed out. It used to work, as I have 237 of 500 and therefore many still available. I have tried in different browsers, inlcuding without any form of blocker.
    THis new mail is just awful.
    For some reason all of the threads that mention disposable addresses are locked, yet the help section still says that we can add disposable addresses. Does Yaho want to get rid of us all?

  19. It is absolutely UNACCEPTABLE to be forced to use either the phone or another e-mail address to sign in

    I don't know in what parallel universe yahoo's programmers live, but it's simply unacceptable to be forced to use another e-mail provider or an app on a mobile phone to sign in to yahoo. What's next, tell me, will we need to bring in a neighbor to confirm it's us ?
    How does signing in to YAHOO mail needing an access code from ANOTHER MAIL PROVIDER make any sense ?
